Bernard Cecil Robinson (5 December 1911 in Cambridge – 29 November 2004 in Norwich) was a footballer who spent his entire professional career with Norwich City F.C.. He was a half-back, and is regarded as one of the club's greatest ever players. Robinson played 380 games for Norwich (scoring 14 goals) from his debut on 2 April 1932 at Exeter City to his final appearance on 12 March 1949 against Ipswich Town at Carrow Road. The Second World War took six years out of his career, but for which he may well have become the club's appearance record holder. He was a member of the Norwich team that won the Division Three (South) Championship in 1934 and was considered an expert penalty taker. After retiring from football, Robinson briefly ran a public house. By the time of the club's centenary celebrations in 2002, Robinson was the club's oldest surviving player. Five days after Robinson's death, a minute's silence was held before Norwich's home match against Fulham (in their first ever season in the English Premier,) and the squad wore black armbands in further tribute. ==Sources== *''Canary Citizens'' by Mark Davage, John Eastwood, Kevin Platt, published by Jarrold Publishing, (2001), ISBN 0-7117-2020-7 *''12 Canary Greats'' by Rick Waghorn, published by Jarrold Publishing (2004), ISBN 978-0-7117-4026-6 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernard Robinson (footballer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
